Spetisbury ?? - COMPLETED
« on: Thursday 08 June 17 11:12 BST (UK) »
I need help in transcribing the words underlined in red.

"Parish Spisbury W . . . ."

As per a transcript on the Dorset OPC website, they have Susanah CHALK "of Spetisbury"

Can someone please help me.

PS; my transcript from the Parish Registers of Winterborne Anderson is, so far ;
“Henery RAWLES of this Parish and Susanah CHALK of the Parish Spisbury . . . . married by Banns in this Church the fifteenth of December in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven Hundred ninety five"
